I was just standing there thinking... "This can't be real? I'm not really here am I? How can I be? I was just walked through a door..."

Still everything felt real to me the air, the heat from the sun, even the foul breath of the cruel man. I didn't have time to think it properly because I was about to get pummeled by a group of thugs. Like Captain America, I kicked the pot lid up into the air and caught it, then I braced for the incoming attacks. Time to find out if I learned anything from sir Gene.

THUG #2 has been defeated--------------------------------------------------------------------

Eishi took only minor damage from their flurry of attacks, if that alone wasn't impressive enough, seeing the boy knock out two of them with just one bash of his pot lid made the two remaining Thugs attempt to escape.

I knew that I would accomplish nothing by chasing after those men who tried to flee so I chose to just let them go. I'm sure they've learned their lesson. I made sure that the one's I hit with the Pot Lid were still alive. Then I raised the lid up to eye level and waited for what would happen next.
